Cold! Colder! Coldest!




Armidale was reported to have had minus 11°C the other night. I lived in Armidale 10 years and thought it was cold. But Uamby taught me what cold means. I found the poor chook pecking at the water bucket trying to get a drink through the ice yesterday. We have had monster fogs that hang around til mid morning, and super frosts (too cold to go out and photograph). But no rain - aprt from a squirt last week and a squirt the week before. Funny thing - we have had only half the rainfall we usually get in the first 6 months of the year, and no electrical storms, where they used to come every few weeks. The weather pattern's gone mad. Global Warming? No. It couldn't be...
